Shelter

Well alright, you gave it all up for a dream.
Fate proved unkind
To lock the door and leave no key.
You're unsure,
Well baby I'm scared too
When the world crushes you.

Let me be your shelter –
Shelter
From the storm outside.
Let me be your shelter –
Shelter
From the endless night.

Disillusion has an edge so sharp,
It tears at your soul
And leaves a stain upon your heart.
I need you to wash mine clean
You've felt it too,
And you need me.

Let me be your shelter –
Shelter
From the storm outside.
Let me be your shelter –
Shelter
From the endless night.

Your struggle with darkness has left you blind,
I'll light the fire in your eyes.

Let me be your shelter –
Shelter
From the storm outside.
Let me be your shelter –
Shelter
From the endless night.

Let me be your shelter –
Shelter...
Let me be your shelter –
Shelter...
